893 titles; some I saw just once like Naked Prey or Elephant Walk. I like how only 10 percent consists of modern examples. think he misunderstood them when they asked for favorites, not how many he has seen.

I'm sure there's plenty of great films in there, but IMO any more than say 100, sort of defeats the purposes of a favorites list. You should be singling out the "best of the best" and making those "tough decisions".

Also, when deciding if a movie is the 394th greatest or 404th greatest, the clarity over why they are given that specific spot becomes more vague. |

Yeah, I guess most lists that large resort to alphabetical or chronological order, as this one has, but then you again lose which are the true "favorites". |

care to share at least your top 10? The first three are pretty much chronological, however the others are interchangeable in placement with the rest of my favorites and they happened to come to mind first. BTW a movie doesn't have to have to be perfect in my estimation to make my list. It may have one element that stands out more than something else, but it is compelling enough that I deem it worthy just for that element alone (Nosferatu is like that). And there are some films I rewatch a lot more than these on the list, but for whatever reason I don't place them in the top spots.
KING KONG JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE THE ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN PLANET OF THE APES NOSFERATU SUPERMAN THE MOVIE THE THING THE TERMINATOR THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK ALIEN PREDATOR ROBOCOP THE LOST CONTINENT ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE THE DEVILS ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN |
